(62,536 posts)Why don't you look at the horrific positions of the avowed "Third Wayer" and tell me he wasn't a damn good Democrat: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Udall#Political_positions
Udall lost because he came out in favor of more gun regulations. A damn fucking strong position that was used by that piece of shit Cory Gardner to steal the seat in a shit off election year where turnout was abysmal. Udall could've played it safe in an election year, not come out for gun control after Sandy Hook, in gun friendly Colorado, and he might have even won reelection. Just the other day some asshole killed random people while the 911 dispatcher argued with someone telling them that a guy walking around open carrying a rifle was fine.
According to liberal That's My Congress Mark Udall was as liberal as Elizabeth Warren.
And he was on the Third Way board, he was a New Democrat, a smear on these forums, but in reality, nothing much to fret over, when the political positions can be sought.
